Desires




There is often less danger in the things we fear than in the things we desire.
~John C. Collins

Desires
We all have desires. We all have dreams. We all have goals. We all don't however, pursue them in a matter that is fulfilling or that will make them come to fruition. Desiring something and actually taking the necessary steps to achieve it go hand in hand. You cannot have one without the other in order to be successful. You also have to know what you truly desire, not what you think you might want. Practice sitting in silence for a few minutes and think about what you desire most. See which ones come to the forefront and which ones fade away. The desires you are left with are the paths that you need to pursue. Having a clear understanding of what you truly desire will help you achieve your dreams. Don't desire something just because your friend or neighbor has it, desire it because it will be right for you. Don't try and be someone your not. Keep your desires true to you and you will forge your own path that is wondrous and meaningful for you and only you!

  1. Maz, each day the daily pearl helps ground me, well I think I'm grounded, then I get half way through my work day and something happens; I allow all the toxicity to drown me. Ughhh! Ok, so I have more growing and learning to do. Thank you for your pearls of wisdom. Keep them coming! Love and miss you, Kaz

  2. There are days that I struggle a little more than others too. It's like learning how to do anything. At first it's a struggle but the more you practice it a few times a day, the more it becomes second nature to you. Thank you for you constant encouragement sister friend! I'm learning so much from this journey about myself and others. We are all more connected than we even realize! Te amo mi hermana.
